I have a Ann Lakin (Nee Bottomore) born circa 1832/33 in Sheepshed, Leicestershire and she married William Lakin (born circa 1826 in Hathern, Leicestershire. They married circa 1849/50
I have found the family on the 1851 and 1861 census. In 1861 they lived in Well Yard, Sheepshed with their children Henry, William, Eliza and Mary.
I cant find any trace of Ann & William Lakin anywhere on the 1871 census. I can find Eliza Lakin living as a stepdaughter to a Thomas Newbold and Ann Newbold and their children in Sheepshed.
Im wondering if William died and Ann re married to Thomas Newbold. However im having trouble finding :
Williams death registered
Ann & Thomas marriage
Am I barking up the wrong tree thinking that Ann remarried or have I just not looked hard enough to find William and Ann on the 1871 census?????

Not sure if you have the details of Ann's marriage to William Lakin -
30 March 1851 - Sheepshed - by Banns
William Lakin - 24, bachelor, Frame Work Knitter. No father named.
Ann Bottomore - 19, spinster, Seamer. Father - Thomas, Frame Work Knitter.
Witnesses - Henry and Mary Lakin - all made their mark.

Anne Lakin, a widow, married John Newbold, a widower, in Shepshed 1868

There are the following burials at Sheepshed -

11 May 1861 - Mary Lakin - infant
Both of Sheepshed.

To expand on emeltom's find:
14 September 1868
John Newbold, f.a., widower, Coal Higger (??). No father named.
Anne Lakin, f.a., widow. Father: Thomas Bottomore, Frame Work Knitter
Neither signed the register.

You can also look at the births of the NEWBOLD children, it appears that Adelaide was the first between them.
NEWBOLD, ADELAIDE
Mother's maiden surname: BOTTOMORE

In the census from 1871 John Newbold is listed as a coal merchant. the fact that Mary Lakin died as an infant would explain why she isnt listed living with her mother.
William and Ann Lakin had a son called William. I can find two records on 1871 census for William Lakin born circa 1853. Both are in Sheepshed.
One a William Lakin is living with John & Mary Wain and listed as nephew on Forest Street
The other William Lakin is living with George & Mary Lakin and listed as relative on Chapel Street
Any ideas how I can figure out which one is the correct one?

There seem to be quite a lot of different -but possibly linked - Newbolds around that area, I've got some Williams, and an Ann, but they're not the same as yours. It took me ages to disentangle them from all the others. Good luck.
(There are several trees on "Ancestry" for assorted Newbolds about that generation - it may help to have a potter round those.)
Sorry I don't seem to be able to help you, but I'll have a look later.

Thank you I now have his birth date exactly in December so if I find out when in 1871 the census was taken I can work out which William it is I’m looking for as one is 17 and the other 18.

Night of 2 April 1871.
-
BUT both William's were registered in June quarter 1853 - Loughborough RD - GRO says mother's maiden names are Bottomore and Atkin. So the 21 December 1854 baptism is your William.
DOH!!!! Of course he is :-[ :-X

It rather seems that Adelaide, the Newbold's daughter, was admitted to an asylum in 1899, and died there in January 1902.
As far as I can see, Ann died 1896, and John 1897.

Thank you to everyone that replied you’ve been most helpful.

You have most definitely helped. I’ve not been doing this very long a matter of weeks. I have a paid subscription to a heritage site but think I’m perhaps not using it efficiently. I can’t seem to find these records but everyone else can ???? It’s a learning curve I guess but I’m most grateful for everyone being so helpful on here.

Remember: most of us have had a great deal of generously given help here, and that's why we're all so pleased when we can be helpful to others.
There's a great deal of expertise on here, I know, I've been helped myself a lot. you'll probably help others, too, before long.
TY
